Tell state officials to remove cancer-causing chemicals from our drinking water
I’ve read about the high levels of PFOAs found in New Jersey’s water, and am seriously concerned about how this dangerous toxin will harm my family’s health and the health of people across our state. We’ve got to take action to fix our drinking water.
I strongly support the limits set out in the “Health Effects Subcommittee Report: Health-Based Maximum Contaminant Level Support Document: Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA),” and urge the Institute to move forward with these recommendations.

Why is this important?
A chemical that causes cancer has been found in New Jersey water systems that serve 1.3 million people.
Water experts want to significantly reduce this toxin, known as PFOA, in New Jersey by setting the strictest limits in the country. But it’s up to the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to make the final decision.
The DEP has dragged its feet before on adopting tough limits on chemicals in the water supply because they think no one is paying attention. If we get loud enough, we can give water quality experts at the Drinking Water Quality Institute the support they need to force the DEP to act.
Tell water quality experts you want to put the health of New Jersey families first and you support their tough limits on PFOAs in our water. Add your name now.
